Artifact 2-6-S-46
Material: Looped heavy duty non-magnetic wire that was once welded(?) to another non-magnetic metal surface. Weight: approximately .3 oz. Condition: Good.

Speculation: This may have been the handle of a small metal cup. If so, the metal to which the handle was attached failed in compression at the bottom edge and in tension at the top edge – as if the cup was being used as a digging tool.
